Update on the nasty skin thing. The meds have finally kicked in. Through trial and error (one of the salves was working for one affection, but made another much worse, and I turned out to be allergic to the original pills) I'm now on a combination of salves, powder and pills that's actually working. The eczema, fungus, infections and unidentified red spots have all almost completely gone. Skin is growing back. Everything itches, but now in a good healing kind of way (but still, it itches something horrible!). My hands and feet are (predictably) peeling so when I rub my hands, it looks like it's snowing. I sit with my feet up a lot (having them down still hurts after a while, the skin is still tender), reading and picking at the loose skin on my hands (which I know I shouldn't do...) Bottomline is I'm doing fine and it's getting better fast.

As long as it involves arousingly soothingly rubbing in of lavender oil, it's ok by me!

Smoothes soothing emollient onto our d_e. Wish I could get Teh Man to do it for you. Glad it's improving.
